MICROWAVE MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
A. Requirements:
1) Microwave leakage limit (Power density limit): The power density of microwave radiation emitted by a microwave oven
shouldnotexceed1mW/cm2atanypoint5cmormorefromtheexternalsurfaceoftheoven,measuredpriortoacquisition
byapurchaser, andthereafter(through theusefullifeof theoven),5 mW/cm2atany point5cmormore fromtheexternal
surface of the oven.
2) Safety interlock switches Primary interlock relay and door sensing switch shall prevent microwave radiation emission in
excess of the requirement as above mentioned, secondary interlock switch shall prevent microwave radiation emission
in excess of 5 mW/cm2at any point 5cm or more from the external surface of the oven.
B. Preparation for testing:
Before beginning the actual measurement of leakage, proceed as follows:
1) Make sure that the actual instrument is operating normally as specified in its instruction booklet.
Important:
Survey instruments that comply with the requirement for instrumentation as prescribed by the performance standard for
microwave ovens, 21 CFR 1030.10(c)(3)(i), must be used for testing.
2) Place the oven tray in the oven cavity.
3) Place the load of 275±15 ml (9.8 oz) of tap water initially at 20±5˚C (68˚F) in the center of the oven cavity.
The water container shall be a low form of 600 ml (20 oz) beaker with an inside diameter of approx. 8.5 cm (3-1/2 in.)
and made of an electrically nonconductive material such as glass or plastic.
Theplacing ofthis standard loadin theoven isimportant notonly toprotect theoven, but alsoto insurethat anyleakage
is measured accurately.
4) Set the cooking control on Full Power Cooking Mode.
5) Close the door and select a cook cycle of several minutes. If the water begins to boil before the survey is completed,
replace it with 275 ml of cool water.
C. Leakage test:
Closed-door leakage test (microwave measurement)
1) Grasptheprobeofthesurveyinstrumentandholditperpendiculartothegapbetweenthedoorandthebodyoftheoven.
2) Move the probe slowly, not faster than 1 in./sec. (2.5 cm/sec.) along the gap, watching for the maximum indication on
the meter.
3) Checkforleakageatthedoorscreen,sheetmetalseamsandotheraccessiblepositionswherethecontinuityofthemetal
has been breached (eg., around the switches, indicator, and vents).
Whiletestingforleakagearoundthedoorpullthedoorawayfromthefrontoftheovenasfarasispermittedbytheclosed
latch assembly.
4) Measure carefully at the point of highest leakage and make sure that the highest leakage is no greater than 4mW/cm2,
and that the secondary interlock switch does turn the oven OFF before any door movement.
NOTE: After servicing, record data on service invoice and microwave leakage report.

connected to the relays are turned on as follows.
(For details, refer to Figure O-2)
RELAY CONNECTED COMPONENTS
RY-1 oven lamp/turntable motor/fan motor
RY-2 power transformer
2. 120 volts A.C. is supplied to the primary winding of the
power transformer and is converted to about 3.1 volts
A.C. output on the filament winding, and approximately
2370 volts A.C. on the high voltage winding.
3. The filament winding voltage heats the magnetron
filamentandtheH.V.windingvoltageissenttoavoltage
doubler circuit.
4. The microwave energy produced by the magnetron is
channelled through the waveguide into the cavity feed-
box, and then into the cavity where the food is placed to
be cooked.
5. Upon completion of the cooking time, the power
transformer, oven lamp, etc. are turned off, and the
generation of microwave energy is stopped. The oven
will revert to the OFF condition.
6. When the door is opened during a cook cycle, the
monitorswitch,doorsensingswitch,secondaryinterlock
switch, relay (RY1) and primary interlock relay are
activated with the following results. The circuits to the
turntable motor, the cooling fan motor, and the high
voltage components are de-energized, the oven lamp
remainson,andthedigitalread-outdisplaysthetimestill
remaining in the cook cycle when the door was opened.
7. Themonitorswitchelectrically monitorstheoperationof

SENSOR COOKING CONDITION
Using the Sensor cooking function (See sensor cooking
menus), the food is cooked without figuring time, power
levelorquantity.Whentheovensensesenoughsteamfrom
the food, it relays the information to its microprocessor
which will calculate the remaining cooking time and power
level needed for best results. When the food is cooked,
water vapor is developed. The sensor “senses” the vapor
anditsresistanceincreasesgradually.Whentheresistance
reaches the value set according to the menu, supplemen-
tary cooking is started. The time of supplementary cooking
is determined by experiment with each food category and
inputted into the LSI.
An example of how sensor works: (BAKED POTATOES)
1. Potatoes at room temperature. Vapor is emitted very
slowly.
2. HeatedPotatoes.Moistureandhumidityisemittedrapidly.
You can smell the aroma as it cooks.
3. Sensor detects moisture and humidity and calculates
cooking time and variable power.

DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS
DOOR OPEN MECHANISM
The door is opened by pulling the door. Refer to the Figure
D-1.
Figure D-1. Door Open Mechanism
DOOR SENSING AND SECONDARY INTERLOCK
SWITCHES
The secondary interlock switch is mounted in the lower
positionofthelatchhookandthe doorsensing switchinthe
primaryinterlocksystemismountedintheupperpositionof
thelatchhook.Theyareactivatedby thelatch headsonthe
door. When the door is opened, the switches interrupt the
power to all high voltage components. A cook cycle cannot
take place until the door is firmly closed thereby activating
both interlock switches. The primary interlock system con-
sists of the door sensing switch and primary interlock relay
located on the control circuit board.
MONITOR SWITCH
Themonitorswitchisactivated(thecontactsopened)bythe
latch head on the door while the door is closed. The switch
is intended to render the oven inoperative, by means of
blowing the monitor fuse, when the contacts of the primary
interlock relay (RY2) and secondary interlock switch fail to
open when the door is opened.
Functions:
1. When the door is opened, the monitor switch contact
close (to the ON condition) due to their being normally
closed.Atthistimetheprimaryinterlockrelay(RY2)and
secondary interlock switch are in the OFF condition
(contactsopen)duetotheirbeingnormallyopencontact
switches.
2. Asthedoorgoestoaclosedposition,themonitorswitch
contacts are first opened and then the door sensing
switchandthesecondaryinterlockswitchcontactsclose.
(On opening the door, each of these switches operate
inversely.)
3. If the door is opened, and the primary interlock relay
(RY2) and secondary interlock switch contacts fail to
open,themonitorfuseblowssimultaneouslywithclosing
of the monitor switch contacts.
CAUTION: BEFORE REPLACING A BLOWN MONITOR
FUSE TEST THE DOOR SENSING SWITCH,
PRIMARYINTERLOCKRELAY(RY2),RELAY
(RY1), SECONDARY INTERLOCK SWITCH
AND MONITOR SWITCH FOR PROPER OP-
ERATION.(REFERTOCHAPTER"TESTPRO-
CEDURE").
NOTE: MONITOR FUSE AND MONITOR SWITCH ARE
REPLACED AS AN ASSEMBLY.
TURNTABLE MOTOR
The turntable motor rotates the turntable located on the
bottomof theoven cavity,so thatthe foodson the turntable
cookevenlyduringcooking.Theturntablemayturnineither
direction.
COOLING FAN MOTOR
The cooling fan motor drives a blade which draws external
cool air. This cool air is directed through the air vanes
surrounding the magnetron and cools the magnetron. This
air is channelled through the oven cavity to remove steam
and vapors given off from the heating foods. It is then
exhausted through the exhausting air vents at the oven
cavity.
MONITOR FUSE
1. Themonitorfuseblowswhenthecontacts(COM-NO)of
theprimaryinterlockrelay(RY2)andsecondaryinterlock
switchremainclosedwith theovendooropenandwhen
the monitor switch closes.
2. If the wire harness or electrical components are short-
circuited, this monitor fuse blows to prevent an electric
shock or fire hazard.
OVEN THERMAL CUT-OUT
Thethermalcut-out,locatedonthetopoftheovencavity,is
designed to prevent damage to the oven by fire. If the food
load is overcooked, by either error in cook time or defect in
the control unit, the thermal cut-out will open.
Under normal operation, the oven thermal cut-out remains
closed. However, when abnormally high temperatures are

MICROWAVE OUTPUT POWER
The following test procedure should be carried out with the microwave oven in a fully assembled
condition (outer case fitted).
HIGH VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT DURING THE COOK CYCLE, SO EXTREME CAUTION SHOULD
BE OBSERVED.
Power output of the magnetron can be measured by performing a water temperature rise test. This test
shouldonlybeusedifabovetestsdonotindicateafaultymagnetronandthereisnodefectinthefollowing
componentsorwiring:siliconrectifier,highvoltagecapacitorandpowertransformer.Thistestwillrequire
a 16 ounce (453cc) measuring cup and an accurate mercury thermometer or thermocouple type
temperature tester. For accurate results, the following procedure must be followed carefully:
1. Fillthemeasuringcupwith16oz.(453cc)oftapwaterandmeasurethetemperatureofthewaterwith
a thermometer or thermocouple temperature tester. Stir the thermometer or thermocouple through
the water until the temperature stabilizes. Record the temperature of the water.
2. Place the cup of water in the oven. Operate oven at POWER100% selecting more than 60 seconds
cook time. Allow the water to heat for 60 seconds, measuring with a stop watch, second hand of a
watch or the digital read-out countdown.
3. Remove the cup from the oven and again measure the temperature, making sure to stir the
thermometer or thermocouple through the water until the maximum temperature is recorded.
4. Subtractthecoldwatertemperaturefromthehotwatertemperature.Thenormalresultshouldbe34.3

tested for the required time period the test results will indicate if the magnetron tube has low power
output (low rise in water temperature) which would extend cooking time or high power output (high
risein water temperature)which would reducecooking time.Because cooking timecan beadjusted
